Throughout our whole trip in Vegas I couldn't help but want to sing "Viva Las Vegas".
Cheesy, I know, but I was like a kid in a candy store.
Literally, my favorite place was this huge candy store/restaurant, The Sugar Factory, as pictured below.
Although we may not have hit the jackpot {unless $10 counts}...we still had an amazing time.
Here are some of our pictures from our first few days in LV.
Enjoy!

Reunited
This past weekend I traveled to Little Rock for {the much anticipated} girls weekend...yeah!
Every year my group of best friends from college get together and do something fun for the weekend.
We have been pretty good about keeping this tradition going for the last 3 years and I can only hope for many more.
We always have so much fun reconnecting, sharing stories, and just being...well...girls!
Here's how our weekend went down.
Enjoy!
First stop: Sushi Cafe
{of course this would turn out blurry, but you get the idea}
We spent Saturday doing all types of girly things starting with pedicures...
Riding at Sunset
I said yes…
It's the little milestones that make me thankful for big memories.
A year ago today I was asked the best question.
"Will you marry me?"
As many of you know, Austin & I got married in March so this isn't an "anniversary" but it's just a special memory that I wanted to look back on and cherish.
Here are some of my favorite

What to Pack
So a few weeks ago the husband and I booked our first trip to Las Vegas. Weare pumped Not that we are big gamblers or anything, but there is something about the lights of the city that just has me fascinated. With Vegas on the brain... I can't help but think of traveling essentials.Here is what's inspiring me lately...Enjoy!
1. My Canon Rebel is a must. Especially with all there is to see in LV...can't leave home without this.
2. . Wow, I LOVE these. Perfect size for carry on...and they are great to use as way to freshen up after a long day of traveling.
3. Mud Pie make up bag. This bag is perfect for flights because it has a clear pouch {TSA approved} that snaps off. I love it! Thanks to a student of mine I will be toting my makeup in style.
4. Apple iPad. Is there really anything that needs to be said? Amazing. Let's just say Vegas Vacation will be downloaded for our viewing pleasure as we board the aircraft.

The Secrets Out
Some of the best keep {beauty} secrets are the ones we know about! After working in a salon for the past 7 years {summer job aside from teaching} and being a product junkie, I have literally tried hundreds of different beauty products. Sadly, I tend to fall for all the gimmicks. However, I have narrowed it down to my favorite products that imitate the real thing. I was inspired to write this post after spending a few days in the salon and having many customers & friends ask me about the products I use. This by no means is all that I use, but it's definitely what people tend to ask about most!Enjoy!
1. St. Tropez Self Tanning Mousse and VS Beach Sexy Self Tanning Lotion {These are worth the $$ and one application will last about a week.} 2. Lip Venom and Lip Injection{You will feel it working immediately. Can be worn alone or under lipstick/gloss} 3. Lancome ...
Beach Bumming
In exactly
one week
me...the husband... his parents...and 2 sisters will pack our bags and head to the beach.
We are so excited to get our toes in that Florida sand.
In the midst of writing my lists of what to pack for a week of R&R, I thought I would share with you my list of beach essentials!
Enjoy!
1. Australian Gold SPF 30 and Bronzer- I love this because it's not greesy and it acts as an SPF and leaves a nice waterproof tint.
2. Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch SPF 70- My all time FAVORITE face sunscreen. Seriously goes on dry and sheer. I have pretty sensitive skin and this works great.
3. Sugar Tinted Lip Balm In Rose SPF 15- This is a great lip balm that gives you a little SPF & a little color. A MUST HAVE!
4. Evian Misting Spray- This acts as a perfect refresher while in the sun. Yes, Yes it't just H20 in a fancy package but it really does work! I love this stuff...doesn't smear makeup either.
5. Fashion & Celeb Magazines...duh!
6. Tory Burch Flip Flops- My favorite summer flip flops. Not to mention they are made well and ...
